so traditionally, this is my new year's eve,the night before my birthday
my real moment for reflection
this project is finished
i started it 365 days ago
one month of it was shown at sugar this fall
honestly, it's very strange to see it all laid out like this
my relationship to it is basically 2 at a time:
the one i am working on and the one that came before it.
but it does represent for me a very important lesson
(a lesson for life as well as the studio)
the concept is not new to me
but i like seeing it metaphorically, in terms of this piece;
quite simply, the value of things are not always obvious in the present:
so many days during the course of this project
i was dismayed by the drawing i had made
but what is impossible to understand in the moment
is that when seen in context of the whole,
every piece has it's place
impossible to understand in the moment...
but imperitive to have faith in
